Kino Lorber and the 3-D Film Archive, LLC will bring to Blu-ray director William Cameron Menzies' film
The Maze (1953), starring Richard Carlson, Veronica Hurst, Katherine Emery, Michael Pate, and John Dodsworth. The release is expected to arrive on the market this fall.
Synopsis:
The Maze has been referred to as "A dark fable... invaluably unique for its era" (Jeff Kuykendall, Midnight Only) and "One of the damnedest films ever made... surprisingly moving" (Bill Warren, Keep Watching the Skies!). These assessments are on the mark and only begin to describe one of the most intriguing 3-D movies ever made.
William Cameron Menzies' unique visual style produced one of the most stunning three-dimensional productions of all time. While other 3-D movies can boast higher budgets and more prestigious pedigrees, none can equal its inspired mix of mystery, science fiction and Lovecraftian horror.
One of the most highly desired 3-D films,
The Maze will be restored from original 35mm left/right archival elements by Kino Lorber Studio Classics and the 3-D Film Archive!
The stereoscopic image restoration will be handled by Archive technical director Greg Kintz; dirt and damage cleanup will be done by digital artist Thad Komorowski and the lost three-channel stereophonic sound will be restored by audio engineer Eckhard Büttner.
